DUPLICATE THE NOISE AND TEST DRIVE
If possible, drive the vehicle with the customer until the noise is duplicated. Note any additional information on
the Diagnostic Worksheet regarding the conditions or location of the noise. This information can be used to
duplicate the same conditions when you confirm the repair.
If the noise can be duplicated easily during the test drive, to help identify the source of the noise, try to dupli-
cate the noise with the vehicle stopped by doing one or all of the following:
1) Close a door.
2) Tap or push/pull around the area where the noise appears to be coming from.
3) Rev the engine.
4) Use a floor jack to recreate vehicle “twist”.
5) At idle, apply engine load (electrical load, half-clutch on M/T models, drive position on A/T models).
6) Raise the vehicle on a hoist and hit a tire with a rubber hammer.
Drive the vehicle and attempt to duplicate the conditions the customer states exist when the noise occurs.
If it is difficult to duplicate the noise, drive the vehicle slowly on an undulating or rough road to stress the
vehicle body.
CHECK RELATED SERVICE BULLETINS
After verifying the customer concern or symptom, check ASIST for Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) related
to that concern or symptom.
If a TSB relates to the symptom, follow the procedure to repair the noise.
LOCATE THE NOISE AND IDENTIFY THE ROOT CAUSE
1. Narrow down the noise to a general area. To help pinpoint the source of the noise, use a listening tool
(Chassis Ear: J-39570, Engine Ear and mechanics stethoscope).
2. Narrow down the noise to a more specific area and identify the cause of the noise by:
removing the components in the area that you suspect the noise is coming from.
Do not use too much force when removing clips and fasteners, otherwise clips and fastener can be broken
or lost during the repair, resulting in the creation of new noise.
tapping or pushing/pulling the component that you suspect is causing the noise.
Do not tap or push/pull the component with excessive force, otherwise the noise will be eliminated only
temporarily.
feeling for a vibration with your hand by touching the component(s) that you suspect is (are) causing the
noise.
placing a piece of paper between components that you suspect are causing the noise.
looking for loose components and contact marks.
Refer to GW-7, "
Generic Squeak and Rattle Troubleshooting" .
REPAIR THE CAUSE
If the cause is a loose component, tighten the component securely.
If the cause is insufficient clearance between components:
–separate components by repositioning or loosening and retightening the component, if possible.
–insulate components with a suitable insulator such as urethane pads, foam blocks, felt cloth tape or ure-
thane tape. A Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) is available through your authorized Nissan Parts
Department.
CAUTION:
Do not use excessive force as many components are constructed of plastic and may be damaged.
NOTE:
Always check with the Parts Department for the latest parts information.

Example of Filling in Check Sheet When Initial Conditions Are Reproduced
1. Put a check mark to “No indication” if some of unit names listed on the column of diagnosis system selec-
tion screen of a check sheet table are not displayed on “SELECT SYSTEM” screen attached to the check
sheet.
NOTE:
Put a check mark to “No indication” of BCM and AUTO DRIVE POS. because BCM and AUTO DRIVE
POS. is not displayed on “SELECT SYSTEM” screen.
2. Confirm the unit name that “UNKWN” is displayed from the copy of “CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR” screen
of “ENGINE” attached to the check sheet, and then put a check mark to the check sheet table.
NOTE:
In “CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR” screen, “UNKWN” is displayed on “VDC/TCS/ABS”, “METER/M&A” and
“IPDM E/R”. Put a check mark to it.
3. Confirm the unit name that “UNKWN” is displayed on the copy of “CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR” screen
of “A/T” and “AIR PRESSURE MONITOR” as well as “ENGINE”. And then, put a check mark to the check
sheet table.
NOTE:
For “A/T”, “UNKWN” is displayed on “VDC/TCS/ABS”, “METER/M&A”, “ICC/e4WD” and “AWD/4WD”.
But put a check mark to “VDC/TCS/ABS” and “METER/M&A” because “UNKWN” is listed on the col-
umn of reception diagnosis of the check sheet table.
For “AIR PRESSURE MONITOR”, “UNKWN” is displayed on “ECM”. Put a check mark to it.

of “INTELLIGENT KEY”, “METER A/C AMP”, “MULTI AV”, “ABS” and “IPDM E/R” as well as “ENGINE”.
And then, put a check mark to the check sheet table.
NOTE:
For “INTELLIGENT KEY”, “UNKWN” is displayed on “ECM”, “BCM/SEC” and “TCM”. Put a check mark
to it.
For “METER A/C AMP”, “UNKWN” is displayed on “ECM”, “TCM” and “BCM/SEC”. Put a check mark to
it.
For “MULTI AV”, “UNKWN” is displayed on “ECM” and “BCM/SEC”. Put a check mark to it.
For “ABS”, “UNKWN” is displayed on “ECM”, “TCM”, “METER/M&A”, “ICC” and “AWD/4WD”. But put a
check mark to “ECM” and “TCM” because “UNKWN” is listed on the column of reception diagnosis of
